"Why not acknowledge self-ownership, and just accept that you can do anything you want to yourself."
Not the worst idea... but should someone who has done this have an absolute right to compete in a league with people who agreed not to do this, at least in certain ways?
There's a difference between saying it's illegal to take steroids and saying that if you take steroids, you aren't allowed to compete in the olympics or other sports leagues.
- mindcrime 14y agoThere's a difference between saying it's illegal to take steroids and saying that if you take steroids, you aren't allowed to compete in the olympics or other sports leagues. Right, a given sports league should certainly be able to say "we don't allow PEDs" (or cybernetic augmentation or exoskeletons or whatever), while a different league might say "run whatcha brung." Likewise, the world doesn't owe the PED taking athlete a venue to compete with his PED taking peers. If such a league forms, it forms... if it doesn't, then so be it.
